It's only been three weeks. Don't be too hard on yourself. Relax and really enjoy vaping. Eventually you'll find you like it better than cigs.

Agreed. It takes time, but stick with it. Use other quitting habits like waiting as long as possible to "cheat", or switch to a brand you really don't like much, and it will come. If you mess up, don't beat yourself up about it. Just keep trying. It gets easier every time.

in my body in the Windy city
I smoked a few cigarettes a day when I first started vaping. At first it was about 4-5, then dropped to about 3, then maybe 1 or 2. I was so thrilled because I hadn't voluntarily smoked so few cigarettes a day...ever. I'm not sure I craved them, exactly, but I thought I wanted them so I smoked them.

It's a different journey for everyone. Feel good about all the cigarettes you haven't smoked and don't put a lot of pressure on yourself if you aren't one of those people who start vaping and never think about cigarettes again.

ive noticed only after the 2 week period, i had an analog, and it tasted like ****! lol but still every now and again i miss going out side with the buddies and enjoying a cig. i also love my beer, so when i drink it brings back the enjoyment i had when lighting up hhhhmmmmmm what to do what top do! lol

Grab a really strong flavor, higher nicotine, tobacco type of juice with you. When you want that "cig feeling", swap your cartomizer to one that's filled with that. Keep your normal vape for the rest of the time. You'll feel like you're getting your "fix." Worth a shot. A lot of us do exactly that, and have been doing it for a while.

Works for me too

PayDay, I did that today. It was more out of curiosity to see what it tasted like than a craving for me. And you are right...it tasted like ****! (see my post it explains everything LOL) Do you go out side with the buddies and enjoy a vape while they smoke? I do that with the girls at work. They all smoke and I just take my Big Daddy with me and have a nice vape :vapor:

Maybe do what BardicDruid suggested and up your nic level, from what I have read that really helps folks that get those cravings. Or you might need to upgrade your setup? I am still a no0b so don't pay much attention to me LOL....you just do what is good for you and when your buddies go outside ...go with them and enjoy a good vape!

i use attys, so im constantly dripping, so its kindda hard, you know? a couplke people suggested i switched over to carts but i really want to try out the reo grand. any advise on that?

The reo grand will be like dripping, without having to drip, essentially. It's a great mod. I'm thinking about grabbing another one.

I'm not a fan of carts anymore, which are different than cartos, but I better duck and cover before I get a debate going like the other day.

They do make them stronger, but the nicotine level might not be the issue. You might just need the right flavor to really hook you. The nicotine from ecigs tends to not bring about the instant gratification as quickly as a heavily spiked, chemically loaded, cigarette. Your body will take time to adjust from needing that burst of nicotine, to less of the physical and mental addiction of the instant satisfaction. Of course, that's why cigarettes are so addictive.

Take your time, stick in there, it will get better if you want it to.

I only drip when I am eager to try my new juices I get (like tonight LOL). I have a "Bullet" (6 volts) with a tank (Vape-O-Matic Liquinator~) on the top..no fuss, no muss. You just fill your tank up and vape all day, all night, any where, any place.

I'm loving that tank. It really works great, and it's so easy to use. Fill the carto, fill the tank, screw onto mod. I wouldn't put it on and ego though. It takes a full size mod to not make it fall over though, so it's on my provari or not at all. SB looks to be similar size.
